Great colour and great performance, these Tulips are real all rounders. In beds or pots they are reliable and beautiful. Tulipmania might have transpired nearly four hundred years ago but the spirit lives on in gardeners everywhere.
Tulips really are the superstars of spring. They can take centre stage like no other flower can, forging unforgettable spring displays. This collection shows off some of their most striking blooms, to add some flare to the garden. Importantly, these tulips not only look good, they have also impressed us with their durability and lasting performance.
Our Tip: Tulips look best en masse, keeping this in mind, we recommend planting them quite densely, or repeated in small groups of three to five through the garden. By using a triangle planting formation you can create a nice full display without having to spend a fortune.
Tulips may have a reputation for being `Prima Donnas’ but in most cases this is undeserved. When you buy a bulb, the flower is already pre-formed and ready to bloom. All you need to do is plant them into well drained soil in a sunny spot, water and then enjoy the show.
A simple way to remember when to plant your tulips is to get them in the ground around Mother`s Day. It doesn’t have to be on the day, it just serves as an easy marker in the calendar. This timing is ideal as by this time the soil has cooled sufficiently for planting and the really hot autumn days are usually done and dusted.
All our bulbs are ready to grow; they do not need to be chilled, which is one less thing to do.
